The morphology, photosynthetic activity, antioxidant enzyme system hormone levels could change in response water stress. mechanisms these changes introduced this review, along with research key transcription factors genes. Both drought stress similarly impact leaf morphology (such as wilting crimping) inhibit photosynthesis. former affects absorption transportation plants, lack nutrients inhibits formation chlorophyll, which leads reduced capacity. Constitutive overexpression 9-cis-epoxydioxygenase (NCED) acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), enzymes abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis, increases resistance. latter forces stomata close chemical signals, produced by roots transferred aboveground, affecting capacity CO2, reducing substrates. root produces adventitious forms aerenchymal adapt stresses. Ethylene (ETH) is main stress, a member ERFVII subfamily, includes involved hypoxia-induced gene expression, responds energy expenditure through anaerobic respiration.
